Jiping Ma 443773aaa9 kernel: upgrade the Linux kernel to 6.12.18
This commit upgrades the Linux kernel to 6.12.18 from 6.6.x, which comes
from the linux-yocto upstream.

The following changes we made to support the kernel upgrade.

For linux debian package deb_patches folder.
 We adapt the kernel related patch for 6.12.18, and cherry pick the
 following 8 commits to support to build the kernel 6.12.x.
 1) commit f77deecbb5d4 "d/rules.real: Unset KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS etc.
    instead of overriding to be empty"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/f77deecbb5d4
 2) commit 0d0d62b7d1cc "d/rules.d/Makefile.inc: Add scripts/include to
    header include path"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/0d0d62b7d1cc
 3) commit 4ad01663251d "[x86] linux-cpupower: Update turbostat Makefile
    to define BUILD_BUG_HEADER"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/4ad01663251d
 4) commit fced95b415be "hyperv-daemons: Update for upstream removal of
    hv_fcopy_daemon"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/fced95b415be
 5) commit 3a17dcbfe0be "d/rules.d/certs: Add newly required include
    directory to CPPFLAGS"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/3a17dcbfe0be
 6) commit 15b6859742d4 "Disable building rtla, since bullseye's
    libtraceevent and libtracefs are too old"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/15b6859742d4
 7) commit b4b93560d441 "[ia64] Drop all ia64 configs due to upstream
    dropping IA64 arch"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/b4b93560d441
 8) commit b93faa99519d "linux-kbuild: Add scripts/module-common.c
    (Closes: #1087495)"
    https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/commit/b93faa99519d

For the Linux source code patches folder.
 1) We adapt the patch 0001, 0003, 0005, 0006, 0010, 0014 and 0017 based
    on kernel-6.12.18.
 2) Remove all the ice port back patches because that has been included
    in our source code.

For the kernel config.
  We enable CONFIG_CPUSETS_V1 and CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 to fix install issue.

Verification:
- Build kernel and out of tree modules success for rt and std.
- Build iso success for rt and std.
- Install success onto a All-in-One lab with rt kernel, and can
  switch to std kernel.
- Boot up successfully in the lab.
- The sanity testing was run and the test results PASS.
- The cyclictest benchmark was also run on the starlingx lab, the result
  is "samples: 43199996 avg: 1656.295 std_dev: 67.617	max: 8827
  99.9999th percentile: 8652“,It is worse than linux-6.6.x.
- The network performance test had been done. For TCP, better than
  kernel-6.6.x, for UDP, a little worse than kernel-6.6.x, for STCP,
  can not do the test that is same with kernel-6.6.x.
